Here is the blind contour drawing for week 3 which is being hosted by Diahn. It is of a "Lady's Head Vase" with flowers which is one of my favorite pieces given to me by my Mother.
I have attached a photo of the vase for anyone who isn't familiar with Lady Head Vases. The flowers are the original ones that came with the vase many years ago.
Thanks Stevie. Linda's tip last week of training the hand to follow your eyes was a great help. I had to focus more than I thought to keep them working together.
Wooo! Nicely done! I have an old head vase, too -- aren't they funny things! (my mom was throwing it out when I was a kid, and I snitched it and hid it under my bed. GLAD I did.) :-)
This is wonderful, Zelma! I love all the fiddly bits around the flowers - what great negative space you've drawn!
ReplyDeleteI've always loved those Lady Head Vases - how fortunate you are to have one!
That came out great. I like how you got in all those flowers
ReplyDeleteWow! Ambitious, inspiring and nicely done!
ReplyDeleteZelma, I find myself following the little vagaries of the lines and seeing the contour of your vase so clearly! Fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! The flowers are my favorite part too!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally impressed. I would have gotten so lost doing that.

Thank you! I love the Lady Head Vases. Some of them are worth a pretty penny depending on their condition.
